384 Cognitive Distortion: Is Your Emotional Brain Playing Tricks on You?

Do you struggle with repetitive negative thoughts?

We all experience some degree of negativity when it comes to our thoughts and feelings, but if it is frequent or intense, it can get in the way of your highest potential in your life, in your career, and in your relationships.

From a psychological perspective, an exaggerated or perseverating pattern of thought not based on facts is a cognitive distortion. It is our emotional brains convincing us to believe negative things about ourselves, others, and our situations without concrete evidence.

In today's episode, you'll learn more about how cognitive distortions can show up in our lives and wreak havoc on our self-esteem and our interpersonal relationships. So if you are struggling with negative thoughts or feel like there's a negative filter on your brain- take heart, you can achieve more mastery over your emotional brain (so it stops playing tricks on you)!
